I like Daryl. He's badass with a side of tenderness, (i.e. him handling the baby, taking care of Carol, etc.). But Merle? He's just a POS that only cares about himself.

I hope that Glenn kicks the living shit out of Merle. That would make me happy.

Oh and yes, this show needs more color. I'm still wondering what happened to the guy and his boy in Season 1. I won't say what happens in the comics, but I hope to see them both come back.

Speaking of the comics, how did you like them? More than the show? Less?

I liked the episode a lot, that was the most extended action scene in the series. my favorite scene was Michonne chopping zombie craniums. I have to pick some nits though. It bugged me that Maggie took cover behind a flimsy aluminum filing cabinet and Rick took cover behind a wooden bridge that was 4-6 inches tall. They got away with it but that seemed really dumb. Rick would know better.

The governor is missing his right eye (most likely his dominant eye) and sniped the prisoner. that doesn't make any sense. how is he looking down the scope when the rifle butt is pitted in his right shoulder. the other thing that bugged me was in the previous episode. the governor was walking at a brisk pace and capped a zombie right in the melon while firing from the hip. apparently the gov's missing eye doesn't affect his depth perception and his long range vision. The he went full auto and couldn't hit anything. it's really inconsistent.

Merle's moving slowly into antihero territory now as I thought he eventually might. I suspect he dies at the end of this season, though, probably helping his brother/the group in the fight against the Governor.

One episode is enough of Rick stumbling around aimlessly in delusion, though. I hope this doesn't last much past this.

Agreed, I'm losing patience with this aspect of the show. Hopefully the firefight and imminent threat brings him back to reality.

I mean, I think we get the point already. This world and devastation it causes leads people to lose their shit. But when the effects of that involve the main protagonist stumbling and mumbling around for several minutes an episode about nothing while losing any sense of reality, it isn't particularly interesting television. Enough is enough there.

When Rick eventually gets sane again, the group will probably have a conversation about needing reinforcements to beat the Governor. They then go get them back and Tyreese arrives to help protect in the prison in a war that will end the season.

Probably nothing more interesting than that for his re-entrance, but we'll see.
